A good news for DOPOD U1000 user, there is a ROM update for our device soon. i will get it by end of next week. From what i heard, the update doesn't concentrate on bug fix, it's more of a bonus pack with small fix for our device.
Don't confuse this with the singapore ROM update, it's different, the one you will get from this bonus pack is newer and not the same. The update from singapore DOPOD is even older the the original ROM ship by DOPOD Taiwan.
The ROM will only be included in the extra accessories pack which apparently isn't for sell at the moment. I have manage to buy 5 of them through my internal contact, will keep one for myself, and the rest will be available for you guys to buy if you want, or i will post it up on ebay.
I am not 100% sure what is included in the pack since i haven't got it yet, but here is a rough guide:
Car charger, Car Mount, Business Card recognize software, Backup software, GPRS Monitor, 2G miniSD with Navigation software (Papago, which is a asian version of TomTom, i have heard that TomTom is base on that program).
Rom update will include MyConnect (don't know what is that)
and RSS Home Plug In, Unlimited Live Music listen on internet (for a short period, then you have to join the member), Quick Mark (something what makes our camera to read Bar Code i think)+some system tweak and fix(not much i think).
****This Rom Update will only be available in this bonus pack, won't be available for download on internet*****
Now, they told me the market price for this bonus pack is £100, the price i can get you is £70 including shipping. Not a bad deal i think if you look at the price for car mount and car charger plus miniSD card. And this is official car mount and charger specially design for Athena you are getting btw.
I only have 4 available, and there is no way to get any more as well, so i will take a first come first serve here, once is out then is out.
PM me for payment and more details.
p.s. I will keep you guys up to date what is exactly in the box.
*****Bonus pack means it doesn't fix any major big issue in our device, it just provide extra service and application....and accessories. So don't ask my to upload the Rom, i can't do that. *****
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update on my gift pack, now i have it in front of me !
From the picture you can see there are lots of CDs included and manuals, and also a nice (specially for Athena) car mount, and also a car charger with very high class HTC logo on it, and also a 2G miniSD.
Now what's inside the disk, here it is:
Disk 1: GPS software (call PAPAGO), not too usefull unless you live in asia or planning to travel to asia, it's like the TOMTOM in europe.
Disk 2: ROM Update, you need to do a hard reset to flash this ROM, the ROM version is newer but i am not quite sure what is the main changes, don't see any addition feature at the moment, but personally, the device feel faster then before. maybe the windows build is newer.
Disk 3: GPRS Monitor and Sprite Backup (well, no much to say about these, you should all know this software already, btw, they are in chinese, so no idea what will happen if you install it on english device.)
Disk 4: Penpower World Card ( business card recognize software) in ENGLISH and it works really well (amazing! , simply take a photo of any business card and it will decode and store all the info into your contacts)
KKBOX , (Online Live Music station, works really well, it has a very large collection, simply select type of music, singer, then it will show you all the albums and you can click play to play them or download them to you device to listen) but this software is in chinese.....
DOPOD RSS Reader (this also has a today plug in so you will see your most updated news on your today screen, nice!) works good and is in english
My Connect (this is like Vodafone live, you can get so much online service here, e.g. Live radio, Live TV, ring tone download, wallpaper, GPS Photo (at the moment you can only download, next ROM update will enable the GPS photo function so we can take it outself)). This is in chinese, with some english on as well(strange) anyway, it does work.
QuickMark (kind of a bar code reader, which allow our device to read bar code and decode it).
That it, this is what you get for the bonus pack, only 2 left....pm me for question. I am off now to watch the live TV from my device
Wu what is the car mount like? can you send me a picture or post it here please, once you get it.

As far as the new ROM goes, it is already in the Dopod site. I don't think there is any major upgrade cause i haven't tried it out yet.
And for the bonus pack, the car mount, bt headset and some extra items (which i forgot cause i haven't received mine yet) is offered as a free gift from SIS. At this point i'm not sure whether there is any software bundled with the free gift, will update once i got mine.
"Business Card recognize software"
i hear about this alot. how does it work if you don't mind?

really? I have just check it, and see nothing on, you want to post a link? this is not what i heard from official, this ROM won't be available for download anywhere.
I have heard some people are getting this as gift, that's why it's not available for buy at this moment, i got it through my internal contact, it's a commercial version which they say they will release for people to buy on mid May. Not sure the content are exactly the same or not.

yes i have mention this before, they are also releasing this as a commercial package to people to buy, that is the package i got, content might be different, but not sure. Also content might be different on different country as well. I have heard nothing about iPod and monitor. Looks like it's only in singapore.
for people getting their pack in singapore, what is it exactly inside ?

It finally out. Goto http://www.my-xda.com/xda2i_soft.html
The latest XDA IIi System Software is available for you to download. New and changed in this version of software, v1.11.162 are:
O2 Music Player (for use by O2 UK customers only)
Updated O2 Active UI
General Operational updates, improving device stability and connectivity management.
Guys, im uploading it for you to the FTP so imate users can use it etc, as you dont have an o2 IMEI.
I don't think I will bother !
The update instructions are a NIGHTMARE ! - including 2 full hard resets and all your date , progs settings etc being lost .
It took me hours on the phone to BT to get my internet settings working on my Pay As You Go sim card.
It all works like a dream now .
Is there a good reason for updating ??
I also notice that 02 have taken the opportunity to remove all mention of blackberry from their website. :evil:
Yup still no blackbery support
But we finally get o2 music player
And it does seem more stable
The radio version was only 1.0 so i kept on my imate radio rom 1.03
Works well so far tho.
What does the music player do better than the existing Windows media player ??
Has anyone installed this yet and if so Have you tried TT5 and does it solve the GPRS freeze problem?
Cheers
Lee
o2 music player allows UK customers to download and preview music tracks for 1pound each.
Ill test the gps with tt5 and post my results.

If that is the only thing then there is no point in upgrading.
Music is more or less free for download on the internet anyway.
Has update sorted GPRS connection problems?
Anyone tried it yet?
It claims "General Operational updates, improving device stability and connectivity management. "
So does this include the GPRS thing?
Had a look, the imate rom seems to be better. OS is radio 1.0.0, imate is 1.0.3
Did anyone also notice that all mention of Blackberry Connect has been removed from the XDA IIi specs page...
They are going to most likley not release the blackberry connect then. It will be released with the HTC Universal which I will have before anyone else....Muhahahaha :lol: In the states that is :wink:
how do you put the imate ROM on it? I can't get it to install as it goes on about incorrect country etc
I emailed them yesterday about the lack of blackberry on their website and recieved this reply :
o2 data support said:
Good morning
Thank you for your e-mail
At this moment in time the software for Blackberry connect is being developed, and hopefully will soon be released. Unfortunately we cannot give you an exact timescale for this, but details will be posted on our XDA website www.my-xda.com when available.
A change request form has been put in to remove the dates from the website
If you have any further enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be more than glad to help.
Kind regards

- Upgrading rom's will ALWAYS nuke your settings - it's a damn reflash of the device to factory status, and has been since 2002

I'm a proud new owner of a Cingular 8525. Got it off ebay for $350 US brand new . This appears to be a great community and I'm thankful it's around.
There seems to be a lot going on here about HTC Hermes. I don't even know where to begin. I browsed the threads a bit and looked up Wiki hermes but don't know where to begin.
I have a few questions?
1) What is the first thing I should do?
2) As far as I know, the official WM6 release isn't coming until June so I am very confused with all these versions that are out right now? Which is the most reliable? Should I wait for the official release?
3) What are some useful tips/tricks/tweaks that will optimizing the performance of the HTC Hermes? (e.g. settings, upgrades, etc...)
4) Any words of caution?
5) Any additional recommendations.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

The battery status today plugin

O2 Plus
IM+ for instant messaging

Cool. Thanks! I'll look into that. Any other suggestions?
First like it has been siad READ THE WIKI.
before loading any OS I would HARD SPL V7 and upgrade the radio. The HardSPL with save you device if something goes wrong during a flash. Upgrading the Radio will give you better reception and much battery life.
Read the guides before you jump into a ROM.
Personally I like CUSTEL's ROMs. If you have the PDA unlimited plan I would use the standard version and add the connection settings by hand. I'm working on a CAB file that has all the setting that I use. I'll post it when I get it working the way I want.
Erik
Any chance you can post the cab or link to the battery status today plug-in? Thanks.

Hi I have an issue with Copilot 8 and havent managed to find a thread in here that mentions the issue I have.
I have the following versions
OS 5.2.21869
Manilla 2.5.19211619.0
ROM 1.48.405.2 WWE
Radio 2.05.51.05_2
I replaced the original 2GB SD card with an 8GB, and used the 2gb card in my daughters Nintendo DS, blatting everything on it.
Now I fancy trying Copilot, and whilst I can run the app, I cannot download any maps as it thinks I am in Africa (or only have permission to download those maps).
This is the same for Copilot Central and on the device, if i try to download anything else it just says "Error downloading files", for the African one it gives me a second screen asking me to confirm.
Am I missing something here? Or is it because I deleted the "trial" version maps on my SD card?
I have 15 days left on the trial to fix this :-S
Hope someone has had the same issue??

Agreed. However I bought CP7 early last year (I think) and it cost me nearly £60! I wrote to them recently asking if I could transfer my licence across rather than pay £26 for a new package when CP7 is perfecly adequate and they refused.
Fair do's I suppose, as they have got to make some money somewhere but disappointed nevertheless. The "get in lane" improvements in CP8 are worth it as I use this system in my car. However seeing that I have not yet had the full benefit out of the package I paid for last year I can't justify the extra expense and then have a whole package lying around doing nothing.
Shame.
WB
I think they are getting confused somewhere!
There is absolutely nothing to prevent you cancelling the license on one device then reactivating it on another one. The only thing they won't do, and this maybe where the confusion arose, is to transfer a license between platforms (WM -> Apple/Andoid and vice versa)
If you still have CPL on the original device, you can go into the Licensing screen and select to deactivate it. This needs an internet connection. Once deactivated, install the program on the new device and go through the online activation. If that doesn't work, complain again to ALK. There is no compulsion to upgrade to relicense the program.
Had the same issue with my trial. CoPilot sent me this link and it says just to copy the copilot folder to the memory card.

That's funny. My CoPilot Central 2.0 thinks I'm in Africa, too. When I used the KML-export function of my GPS-Tracks, that I had no use for, the only coordinates the KML-file contained were two hundred miles off the coast of Ghana in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

Thats the link that got mine working, I still had the ROM version loaded on my HD2.
Now I can see what the product is like, the screenshots look pretty nice. Ive got an inbuilt satnav in the car, but for £26 I'd be tempted to get this as a walking aid.

Same here, I have factory fitted satnav in the car but I got co-pilot after the trial ended, as you say if you just use it as a walking aid, you can't go wrong for £26.

Neil,
Thanks for the heads up. To be honest ALK make a great product but their Customer Service is diabolical. Rather than spend hours exchanging increasingly meaningless messages with them in that fixed format template format they are so fond of using which is so irritating and tells you absolutely nothing, I simply ditched all the CP8 folders on my device (bar the rom files which I can't move) and installed my paid for CP7.
Saves a whole load of hassle, from my perspective, and it works just fine.

Long shot but if you are trying to access CP Central from a PC, why don't you set-up a proxy server or use some other method to "hide" your IP address which might help solve the problem?
I have never done this for this purpose so it's unusual for me to recommend an action I have not tried myself; however if no one else has a better answer and you can't get CP Support to help then might be worth a go?

Got to be worth a try, so i will give it a go.
My mate has the same issue, so its not just me
Let us know how you get on. If it works then this would be a useful tip for others. If it doesn't then they don't have to waste their time on this.

I have raised the question with the support team, will update post in a month when they reply!! Although to be fair they came back within 2 hours on the Africa thing on the HD2 with the link to the software.

Don't bother with the Copilot support "contact form". It's totally useless, and they'll probably never reply. Instead send a "tweet" to http://twitter.com/copilotsupport/ or http://twitter.com/copilotlive/. That usually gets an answer within 24 hours.
There was a new ROM listed on the HTC (UK) site earlier and now it has disappeared. (Release Date: 2010-06-17)
If you goto http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=2 you will notice that it isn't listed there.
If you goto http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=960 you will see the details of the ROM (2.07.51.22)
I have tried to download this but it rejects my serial number. Anyone else have any luck trynig this?
I tried searching the forum but couldn't see any posts on this yet.
For me it is there.

Can you download it? When i goto the main list of ROMS it doesn't show up. If i goto the direct link i can see it, but can't download as it rejects my serial even tho i have a WWE unbranded handset. I'm currently on ROM 1.66.
I can't load it, because I've a German device. But it is for me in the list and it is marked " Date: 2010-06-17".

This is weird! It did show up for me as in your pic but it has now disappeared for the list. This is what i have in my list :
odd, that looks more like a radio version than a rom version. can't try the download though, not on pc. hmmm.
I have now tried another WWE Serial that was posted elsewhere in the forums and this also doesn't work.
Has anyone had any luck downloading this?

Yeah, but there is quite an "extended" changelog provided by HTC - I didn't know sth. like this from HTC until now...
I've just entered the serial from under the battery as well as the serial from my current ROM (energy june 11th) no luck with either
Don't see it anymore...

o2 uk serial works.
edit - oh you beat me to it, hehe.
Looks like the version number is a radio version after all.

seems to be last O2 released rom, as well?
So - this is nothing new then.......................
I have emailed HTC to see what they are say.
I hate HTC for that. Why do they always release something and name it after sth. completely different. After a couple of customer-complaints and corrections they will change the information... Are there only idiots at work?
It was the same with ALL branded ROMs here in GER, and the famous SMS-Hotfix is still a RADIO...
HTC, you should rather care for your customers than going to court vs. Conflipper... and your E-Mail-support - it seems that the only condition to get an engagement in your customer support is being able to breathe autonomously... when I came from SE to HTC, I thought customer care could only become better - but HTC is just a whole freakin' mess...
BTW: a 2.07-ROM for EUR woud have been strange anyway...
Sorry, for getting OT...
lol, maybe it's a response test on us lot, , see how quickly it gets found when they put something on the server,
So is this really just a Radio upgrade? Because I'm currently on Stock 1.66 WWE Rom with Radio 2.10.50.07 from Middle East & Africa HTC site.

I am also looking
Regards,
Kevin.
hmm i need a licence for....
does anyone know some other way?
WM6.1
He we have a number of these we need to upgrade. some have a win mobile Classic sticker on the bat compartment but have had WM5 installed.
Have you got anywhere with this yet.
I did find this license costs at
www barcodediscount.com catalog symbol part-swe-116044-01.htm
but need a cheaper solution for the old handsets
Derek
I'm looking too! Seems you can't even purchase it anymore and I need v6 for certain apps.
I also am looking to upgrade one of my MC70 devices from WM5 to WM6/6.1 because the wireless security in wm5 will not support WPA-2 on this Symbol device with provided software. Currently it only supports WPA Personal and such. Which is way too insecure.
Anyone have any idea, or maybe a 3rd party wifi client that could handle authentication for wm5?
This device is still far too useful to be cast into the depths of a landfill.
I mean, it still has:
Bluetooth
Wifi
GPS
Cellular (Sprint)
IrDA
1D and 2D barcode reader
"Waterproof"
and very rugged.
Thanks you guys!
My MC70 with windows 5.0 supports WPA-2. You should select AES encryption
Everyone looking for upgrade options can PM me
I got some PMs and responded to them but I'm not sure if it got delivered as I don't see it in my send messages

Hey! Do you have which Barcode Warehouse you got this from. I looked and it appears that there are many websites under that title, but none seem to sell the software or key, at least that I can find. Thanks in advance!

Hi sent PM! not avail anymore from barcode warehouse in UK, according to online search! what to do!!!
I have shouted and moaned at zebra and don't get very far, even offered to take a contract, I ended up talking with them for 4 months only for tech to decline due to age of kit.
Any how I also have a bunch of MC75 so tried again.
Well got a bit closer, I now have a WM6.5 update but cant get it to roll.
I have sent you a Pm
Dez
Hi
I also have a symbol mc70 (or 75 i dont know it yet) and called my Distributor for a Update.
I cant rember who told me the Distributor or Zebra Salesagent that the Upgrades to Win6.1 are not longer Available.
The Upgrade cost ~10€ and is just a Digital Licence.
You need the Zip file downloads and a SIG file which is the licence that makes the magic work
But you do need to know which handset you have, MC70xx can go upto 6.1, MC75 6.1 and 6.5 but I have found a bit of ambiguity there
it seems their are few diff types of MC75
Note. I moved to 6.1 on the MC70xx but found the trigger cradle no longer works, go back to 5.1 and all is well.
If someone has a workround for the trigger on 6.1 (and i have tried the wedge software) please let us know
DB
I dont have the device next to me. Do you have a source for a Licence?
Mine came from Barcode Warehouse uk last year
about £ 22.00 which then opend up an order on the zebra site
But you must have the correct order code, otherwise you will get the "dont know i cant find it" answer
I would be carfull of the e downloads
last year

when exactly?
I was looking on there Page to but the shipping cost to Austria for a Virtual Product was insane. I think it was 40€ or more shipping for a digi licence...
When i went to place an order (Via phone) they take the order without carrage
